I was wondering if Dave saw my suggestion on Twitter (sign them and offer them up in return for donations to the blog), but having just watched the most recent live show I see he's not into the whole 'autograph' business anyway!  Even presuming he wasn't after a project idea instead...  :D

You could run a contest where you have 120 prizes of 10 LCDs or 12 prizes of 120 LCDs.

Make a simple arduino shield for them and sell them for hyper inflated prices. Seems to be the way of a lot of the arduino stuff

Ok, so what do you do with 1200 or so 16x2 LCD modules?...
Dave.

Dave, your time is too precious to be dealing with such trivial problems. Hand over the LCDs to me and I will take care of this annoying problem you are faced with.

Or you could send them to me. >.>

There's so many things you could do with those LCDs...

Could mount 20 of them vertically (10 per channel) and make a stereo graphic eq display.
(Assuming there is a font/character in the controller thats suitable)
Greek letter 'Psi' (not Pounds per Square Inch)
